All of these look so versatile, and love the colors-they all look really good on you too!

The second one and the fourth are my favorite @MacDUFF.  @Andreatoo she does appear slimmer and thinner. I bet that closet purge and all that work did away with a great many calories.  I did my shoe section only a few weeks ago and it about wore me out.

You look great in all of your photos! I like this hoodie sweatshirt best. 

You mention having a “hole” in your wardrobe for comfy casual around the house clothes. I’ve always had pieces in that category. When I was growing up, we always had our better clothes and around the house clothes. My mom would always have us change out of nicer clothes when we got home. Even as an adult living on my own, I continue that practice. Maybe that’s why my better clothes last so long.

The only purchase I made during lockdown...a Tory Burch tie dye sweatshirt (1st pic larger to show detail and accurate hair color, too).   60% off at Nordstrom dotcom in the 1st week of lockdown.  Wore it with different jeans (AG wide legs in pic) and sneaks to go to grocery, and (2nd pic) with white WWC and sox at home.  It has an embroidered heart.  It cheered me up!

@MacDUFF  Absolutely LOVE that tie-dye shirt!

I bought my first ever tie-die shirt during lockdown but unfortunately only got to wear it a few times before the hot weather kicked in.  Looking forward to getting a lot of wear out of it when it cools down.

ETA:  I bought a pair of tie dye pjs too!

@DiAnne   (DiAnne, our library opened for curbside service today...it's a start YAY!) 

Thank you.   

@beckyb1012  @Andreatoo    Yeah, I lost some weight in the first few weeks from anxiety, worry, and frantic house cleaning/organizing.  I was not given a spirit of fear, though, but of great Hope, so I snapped out of it and forced myself to focus on my Strength and on sticking to my normal routine.  Anyway, my clothes still fit, thank Goodness hahaha!  (becky, who knew that purging could be so exhausting?  Hope you love the results in your shoe section.)

I used this gif in another thread, but I swear this was me the first few weeks of lockdown.  THIS is how I lost a few pounds...it's funny, but it's not!...

@Greeneyedlady21   I really hit the jackpot on the Tory Burch.  It's such good quality...wash, dry, wear.  I got so many compliments...one lady told me it made her happy.  Normally, I can't afford her prices, darn it!

@wilma   thanks!  My Mom did the same!  But she was the queen of getting the most out of a purchase.  Until a few years ago, I moved my older, worn out work clothes to the casual side of my closet and wore them to death.  I always had a weird mishmash of very uncool casual clothes!   I still tend to resist paying much for casual clothes to wear around the house.  I'm trying to be more mindful of quality over quantity even in my casual clothes.  I've seen some of your outfits and think you have cute, comfy pieces you can wear around the house, yet be presentable (Mom's word hahaha) if you had to run an errand or had unexpected company.  

This is how I look lounging around the house...in my imagination hahaha, but I'm on the hunt for "nice" casual outfits like these...in cashmere, of course...

Hey @Caligurll!!  Yes, these are my first tie dyed tops, too, which is surprising since I lived thru the 60's hahaha.  Tie dye is waaay out of my norm, but I love this fun and whimsical top.  The only thing that would have made these perfect would be matching joggers!  Wear yours in good health.

My library is still closed.  I have spent a fortune at Amazon on books.   

The high point in my life is that I am getting my hair cut next Friday for the first time since February.  For someone used to getting her haircut every 3 weeks this is a really big deal!

You look wonderful!

I agree with @Jtdmum .  I enjoy your posts w/pics and your bright smile.  My grandchild also appreciated your sponge bob pic.

I cleaned out my closets and to tell the truth, I haven't lost a pound.  It can be tiring too, working on the sorting of those clothes and getting bags ready for donation. Going up and down the basement steps wore me out. I enjoyed the pictures and you look great in all the outfits.  You have great taste and look put together.
